NotesI have a mild cold. It's not bad enough for me to take time off from anything, but it's a little annoying. For dinner, we're going to what is becoming our traditional Friday evening dinner at Loving Hut. Tomorrow I'm hoping we'll fit in weight lifting then are going to lead rec league in the evening. We've got a really derby filled week coming up. Leading rec league tomorrow, scrimmage practice Sun, DSA training Mon, meeting then practice Tues, Wed off (though will do plyo on my own), practice Thurs, and team practice Fri. Oh, then an off-skates team bonding on Sat. It's really a good thing my partner does derby as well or we'd never see each other.

On Saturday, I led a 2-hour rec league session. As I was leading, it wasn't really much in the way of exercise. Though I was on skates, I was mostly demonstrating stuff and slowly skating around watching people.

On Sunday I felt hideous! Sinus pressure was really bad and gave me a headache that wouldn't budge. So I spent the whole day in bed and skipped my usual practice. So no exercise for me.

I can't remember everything I ate, but pancakes, tofu scramble with black beans, and leftover spaghetti were in the mix.

Still feeling a bit ill, but I don't have the headache like yesterday so I am at work and am determined to go to the DSA session tonight.

I've let my log slip for a couple of days, but I'm going to try to get back on it!

I forgot to mention that we had a travel team selection a couple of weeks ago, and I am still on the A team. And it seems I'm currently assessed to be in the top 14. So far so good, though I definitely know that I'm on the border so I need to keep improving!

NotesIn the evening we had a team bonding get-together, which was a pot luck. I ate a bunch of crisps and bread and hummus to start. For the mains and dessert, the only vegan things there were the dishes I made, which were a pie with vegetables and mince and some pecan squares.

NotesOff-skates training last night was pretty tough and my legs are feeling pretty tired, but I'm still cycling and skating! Haven't lifted weights for a while outside of the off-skates (DSA) training, and we're all mostly going over form there so nothing heavy yet. I hope to lift weights tomorrow night, but my partner won't be working so I'll have to do things I don't need a spotter for.
